ANALYZE

Refer to the results of your observation to answer the questions that follow.

1. Which of the three responsibilities shows majority of the indicators being practiced?
A. Actual Teaching?
B. Management of Learning?
C. Administrative Work?
Answer:

It is the “Actual Teaching” portion to just be fully prepared to step into the role of a
real teacher, you have to be adequately prepared and equipped as a professional
educator. You cannot expect to be capable to advance to the next level of
responsibilities when you not learn how to handle for the effective teaching process.

2. Which demonstrated behavior, do you find in the teacher is worthy of emulation when
you become a teacher? Describe.
Answer:

In my perspective, everything of the teacher's excellent conduct is worthy of

emulation. The teacher's abilities include the ability to perform the lesson effectively
utilizing suitable teaching tools, maintaining great classroom management, and
possessing a positive sense of humor while interacting with students.

3. Which of the major responsibilities does this teacher find difficult to comply with?
What are the reasons?
Answer:

Administrative work is crucial since the teacher's adaptive capacity and creativity
are challenged while doing his or her profession. A teacher is known for being a
multitasker, thus she or he will need to make several modifications in order to be
effective and successful in his or her profession.

4. From your perspective, would you consider this teacher as quality teacher? Why?
Answer:

Yes, because she has the qualities of an excellent teacher. Her love for teaching
and competence in imparting her lectures to her students are noticeable. Her constant
advances for herself and her high level of proficiency in teaching demonstrated that she
was a skilled and experienced teacher.

REFLECT

Now, that you have spent one school day to observe this teacher, it would be good for
you to reflect on all your observations by answering reflective questions below.

1. Are you inspired to become a teacher after your observation? If Yes, why? If No,
why not?
Answer:
Yes, since the school acts as a second home for me, I am inspired to become
one. Teachers and students I met throughout my observation time have impressed
me much because of their emotional support and all of the stories they've shared with
me. I'm even more determined to pursue this profession that I've chosen.

2. When you become a teacher in the future, how else would you do better as a
professional teacher?
Answer:
I'll constantly learning innovative concepts to enable me become a more
effective and successful teacher. Accepting whatever structural changes or revisions
the teaching and learning process may go through necessitates adaptability,
transparency, and innovation on my part. In short, I need to keep growing as a person
and a teacher.

3. What are some of the concerns that you foresee in the future as a quality teacher?
Do you think you will be ready to address these? Give at least 2 concerns.
Answer:
Teachers must be technologically savvy, yet they lack access to cutting-edge
instructional tools. To solve these challenges, the institution should organize seminars
or training programs on technological advancements that may be employed in the
teaching-learning process, as well as give enough aid in the form of technical
resources that can be used with their instructions.

4. In what aspects of the teacher’s day, would you like to congratulate the teacher you
observed? Can you show your appreciation to this teacher by sending a Thank you
card? (Include this in your artifact)
Answer:
I'd want to commend the teacher I observed in class for being well-prepared
and structured. The teacher enters the classroom early, successful in teaching. Her
classes were well-planned and delivered. The classrooms were designed to keep
distractions to a minimal level.

REFLECT

Based on the task that you made, what challenges await you as a future teacher? How
will you manage learning in the future classroom? How will you prepare yourself to
respond to 21st teaching-learning and become a global teacher?

Answer:

One of my major challenges as a future educator in a 21st-century classroom

will be keeping up with my students' interests, particularly because they are already
conversant with current technology. I should also comprehend what they are
studying, specifically how to properly teach students using modern technologies. I will
improvise rather than utilize all of the usual teaching-learning approaches to catch
students' attention and encourage them to study in the twenty-first century classroom
since they can see it.
The classroom of the twenty-first century is no longer concentrated on the
teacher, but rather on the students. Teachers are now facilitators of learning rather
than lecturers. Students no longer study each subject independently. Because the
utilization of digital resources in the teaching-learning process is equally important in
this day and age, we cannot depend simply on conventional teaching techniques.

SHOW Your Learning Artifacts

These are the artifacts that you need to file in this Module.

Activity 15.1 Narrative on the Day in the School Life of the Quality Teacher

2. Activity 15.2 Drawing of the present classroom and Drawing of your Vision of the

3. Activity 15.2 Narrative on how you will manage teaching-learning in the 21st
Century classroom.

1. Activity 15.1 Report on the Observation including evidence that go with it.

Answer:

As I have observed, the teacher teaches effectively in her class, and all of her
students actively participated in her discussion. The teacher also has a mastery of her
lesson that she didn't even need any copies like books, or learning modules. Moreover,
the way she delivers or speaks in the class is one of the reasons why her students
aren't intimidated by her presence, bringing in a favorable lesson outcome.

1. Activity 15.1 Narrative on the Day in the School Life of the Quality Teacher.

Answer:

On my observation in Grade 7 – ESCURO, my Resource Teacher already

prepared her lessons of the day from 7:30 AM – 8:30 AM. Before entering the room, she
asked her students to be ready for the class. She also conducted various classroom
management rules such as picking up some trashes on the floor, arranging chairs, and
letting the assigned student to lead the prayer. After that, she conducted some ice
breakers like exercise which enables students to be more engaged in the class.

Prior to the discussion, the teacher posted her visual aids in front of the class, she
involved some colorful designs, texts, and pictures. During the class, she integrates
open-ended questions for her to know to know that her students are listening. Moreover,
she conducted some assessments like short quiz of the topic or lesson. In her
discussion, it is observed that the class are all participative which is an indication that
they are learning and it is also visible that the teacher and the learners are connected
due to the topic that is very timely and relevant which makes the discussion more
engaging.

The moment where she almost ended her class, she gives an assignment for the
students to work on at home. Along with that, she did a recap for the students to fully
grasp the topic she presented to the class. Finally, she ended her class with a closing
prayer.

Answer:

My Classroom for the 21st Century

3. Activity 15.2 Narrative on how you will manage teaching-learning in the 21st
Century classroom.

Answer:

With the advent of the 21st-century classroom, it is important to acknowledge that

traditional teaching methods are not always applicable. In order to effectively teach a
21st-century classroom, educators must be able to provide students with opportunities
for collaboration and independent learning while also being able to effectively assess
the growth or decline of student knowledge. It is imperative that educators take
advantage of technology as well as other emerging trends in education in order to bring
their classrooms into this century.
